# Open Knowledge Format (OKF) — Google's AI Agent Knowledge Standard

Google's vendor-neutral format for representing knowledge as markdown files with YAML frontmatter, designed for AI agent consumption. Create, validate, and consume knowledge bundles.

## Why Install This Skill

When your agent loads this skill, it can **create and validate OKF knowledge bundles** — the emerging standard for AI agent knowledge. That means:

- **Structure knowledge for AI consumption** — bundles of markdown with YAML frontmatter
- **Validate bundle integrity** — check frontmatter, cross-links, and directory structure
- **Create from templates** — scaffold new concepts and bundles
- **Cross-link between concepts** — express relationships between knowledge units
- **Distribute without vendor lock-in** — plain markdown, cloneable via git
